Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
State type and class number: State code Class 2 section number 15302.c
Reasons for Exemption
The WRF 1 Centrifuge Project qualifies for exemption under CEQA because it involves minor alterations to existing public facilities. The project's scope, which includes replacing an outdated belt press with a new Alfa Laval ALDEC G395 Centrifuge, falls within the parameters of routine maintenance and equipment upgrades at an existing water reclamation facility. This replacement and upgrade does not involve an expansion of the existing use of the facility but aims to enhance the efficiency and reliability of the current operations. Additionally, the project will not result in significant environmental impacts, as it is confined to the existing facility footprint and utilizes existing utility and infrastructure systems.
